]]>Sony Walkman was the first successful portable audio player. It introduced a change in music listening habits by allowing people to carry music everywhere and listen to it using earphones/headphones. This brings users in a sort of isolation state that initially was Sony Walkman’s main and successful feature, but then it became an obstacle to human interaction, even using new technologies.

MoovBox is a conceptual portable synthesizer that wants to revolutionize music listening experience, making it “active” allowing people to create new music, mixing it during the listening, and produce new tracks without any limit. It has to be used in association with a smarthphone.

The basic design of MoovBox user interface features Moog Modular that uses a method consists of two movements: press keyboard button with one hand, and use the other one to rotate the control knob to modify the note. So MooveBox has been designed to be easy to use, in fact, it is possible to modify a note just using one finger, pressing one of the seven rolls and rotating it. MoovBox body is made of a flexible material, so it can be physically deformed, and every deformation will coincide to a sound distortion.

MoovBox can be used with common gestures, the design team has done some studies in order to take advantage common people gestures when holding objects to minimize any unnecessary and stressful gestures to make the sound. Twisting, compression, and beat are linked to specific musical instruments and the interaction intensity defines the uniqueness of every sound produced by every user, increasing its creative value.

The lack of a traditional touchscreen interface allows to create an important focus on the physical interaction with the product, delegating management, preparation and amplification functions the app that has to be downloaded on the multimedia device selected.

MoovBox, thanks to its universal “audio-sign” language, wants to be a device of “social meeting”, allowing a comprehensive comparison between all users who want to share their own creations and their own music culture using online jam-sessions.

New and mixed tracks are made available for other users, they can enjoy music streaming as if using a common radio or modify them again in order to create new and unique tracks. MoovBox concept was a finalist in the Samsung Young Award 2012 (during the competition model has been prototyped by Samsung), it is a finalist in Lucky Strike Talented Designer Award 2013 and it is in pre-judging phase in Red Dot Concept Design Award 2014.

]]>Artiphon Instrument 1 is the next generation musical device that blends traditional craftsmanship with advanced technology. It’s a unique and dramatic music controller that takes advantage of today’s mobile technology; it can be played by people with all skill levels yet robust enough to satisfy seasoned artists. The company tries to break the boundaries between traditional and innovation while still providing the freedom to the musician. Every product has been designed to re-imagine how music can be consumed, created, and enjoyed.

The Instrument 1 music controller is definitely not the usual kind instrument that you see in the music store. It features ergonomic hardwood body that allows you to play it in 5 different positions while the virtual string interface has great sensitivity and responsiveness. It’s safe to say that this is the first serious instrument for a professional mobile musician.

Placed in multi-instrument category, this device emits variety of sound and can be played in different positions, unlike most standard instrument which can only be held on one way. You can play it like a guitar using the sling strap over your neck, or place it under your chin like a violin, or prop it upright your knee for cello technique. It’s a portable music studio that offers professional-level performance. One minor problem is that this music controller is only compatible with iPhone 5/5s, so Android users will have to wait until the company releases universal version.

Artiphon Instrument 1 is hand built in Nashville, TN where it’s body carved of sustainably harvested hardwood and bamboo by Cumberland Architectural Millwork. It has patent-pending fretboard interface with 6 virtual strings, 6 virtual frets, and full fretless playability. The onboard connections are for headphones, USB, ¼” stereo instrument cable, and MIDI I/O. Each one is equipped with high-fidelity stereo BMR speakers (100Hz–20kHz) and a 25-Watt, Class-D amplifier built-in. There’s an iOS app that you can use to control any CORE MIDI with multi-track recording capabilities.

]]>Just recently at 2014 Grammy Awards event, Daft Punk celebrated the ascendancy of electric sound and image as declaration of popular expression. It’s cool and crisp sound, this is the era where digital performers replace human sound with unique, synthesized audio constructs. It’s a sudden clearance moment where Gibson realized how new music has left new artists without an instrument to embrace this new role.

Keeping that in mind, Gibson has released its latest project called Concept 909. It’s a progressive instrument for new musicians who used to play the guitar. Make no mistake, the company claims this is not a guitar, this concept instrument works as a human interface that references a set of learned gestures and responses from another period in our musical evolution. It is both a controller and a generator where you can use in your home, studio, or on stage. The 909’s activators can be programmed to deliver amazing sonic responses while maintaining the tactile qualities of strings and frets.

Concept 909 has been designed with a circle form to express dynamic lifestyle, its proportioning of activator extension, historical references, and its integration with technician’s body. While you have to carry this instrument on-the-go, simply fold the extensions and it becomes as mobile as a wheel. The fundamental layouts of this instrument are circle-based arcs and intersections, an expression in pure geometry.

]]>A modern piano design, it’s 5-meter long futuristic concept piano inspired by waves. It’s been awhile since we heard from Apostol Tnokovski, this time he submitted his latest project: a beautiful and elegant piano. The combination of the curved glossy black body followed by the two fine-brushed metal legs gives a powerful “out of this world” impression. Although, the concept is not inspired by any modern pop-artist in particular, Tnokovski truly hopes that it will get someone’s attention.

]]>Stash Stainless Bass Guitar offers you 100% stainless steel bass guitar with unified frets and a tubular neck, a unique design that promises more comfortable way for musician to reach the strings. Every part of the guitar has been carefully designed and crafted, from the body, pickups, and neck. Stan Potyrala has done a great job in designing sleek and modern bass guitar, the tubular neck allows musician’s fingers to experience parallel array of strings around a circular radius. The design eases the muscle stress which a flat surface can cause to the finger, wrist, and hands.

The guitar weighs 10lb (4.5kg) with 38mm diameter as its neck. Every part of this bass guitar is constructed using the same metal, resulting one coefficient of thermal expansion. Your bass will stay in tune much longer than conventional basses and extreme temperature won’t give any effect. The overall design improves sound quality, tuning and mechanical accuracy, as well as environmental stability. The introductory price is $3000.
